Ok then I'll leave that one alone. Maybe you can shed some light on this situation. I have a 'purge' program that takes invoices in OM, OI (header and line item files), writes them to OM.H, OI.H (history files), then deletes them from the OM, OI. When we were on DG/UX, this purge could run during the day and it really wouldn't affect 'things' too much. Now that we're on the IBM/Linux box, it really can't be run during the day, because it seems to be hogging up all the Universe resource and everyone comes to a complete crawl.
The files are all Dynamic and pretty well overflowed. I know this is causing some of the grief (even though it didn't have the same effect on the DG system). What would you do to try to debug this situation ? For example, there a points in this process when the users will get processed, then everything seems to freeze, then it moves, then it freezes... I would love to know what Universe is doing during this 'freeze'.

I originally put this facility in as an alternative to commonly available memory tracing facilities, such as Purify and the like, due to it's unavailability on certain platforms. It allowed for the tracing of malloc/calloc/realloc/free calls across the product, checking for memory overruns, double frees, and other related memory corruption issues. Sadly, because it was put in at the very end of my "time" with VMark/Ardent/Informix (as I went with the Ascential crew), it was never fully implemented to hook into the tunable, at least to my knowledge. Right now, it requires a special build to enable it, and isn't tied to the tunable unless that special build has taken place. Even with it, it wasn't geared at being a performance or memory consumption utility, but rather, memory corruption checking. One thing to check is whether the "CORE" verb is enable on your system. If your version of UV has the CORE verb working, you can glean some information related to memory consumption that may provide some assistance.
